My Wife is a Hacker (Nicole Riddle and Jared) novel Chapter 43

Previously, it was viral on the internet that the new transfer student, Nicole, was prettier than the current campus queen, Snow, by a hundred-fold. Snow did not show it on her face, but she secretly tore apart a book in her hands. It was already a shame for her to be placed next to Raine for campus queen. Now that Nicole has stepped into the picture, her title of campus queen was in danger! Snow glanced at Jack and noticed that the boys were from Gary’s clique. She dared not to mess with the Finleys. So, she could only put up with everything in silence.

Unless… While Snow thought of something, her eyes gleamed with a satisfactory smile. If that person was present, these people’s mockery would just be a minute thing. Nicole did not bother about others’ comments. She looked at Snow and asked, “Why are you suddenly inviting me for lunch?”

She had witnessed Snow and Raine’s loudmouth. Snow did not seem like one who would simply invite others for a meal.

Snow smiled and replied, “It’s your first day, of course I had to come to see you.” Nicole frowned, “Is that all?”

“Yeah,” smiled Snow.

Nicole was a lot more curious about Snow’s hidden agenda. She simply replied, “Let’s go

then.”

She wanted to see what Snow was up to.

All the way to the canteen, Snow had been checking in on Nicole with questions. She wondered if Nicole felt uncomfortable with the place. Nicole gave her short replies. If a stranger saw them, the person might think that Snow treated Nicole really well. But Nicole was not grateful for it.

After all, gossip was Karen and Snow’s favorite thing to do,

Nicole did not want to give her any chance to badmouth her.

But the colder she treated Snow, the graver Snow’s expression became.

Other people thought Nicole was bullying the campus queen.

Many of them took a picture of it angrily and posted it to the campus blog. These pictures were skillfully framed at the best angle. It made Snow seem to be extremely wronged. “Wow! This Nicole is really shameless. Our campus queen was being kind to a country bumpkin like her. It’s fine if she did not appreciate it, but she actually bullied her and made her cry?” “That’s right. No matter how beautiful she is, it’s the personality that matters. How could she

be compared to Snow’s gentleness?” “Sorry to interrupt but it’s going to be the annual campus king and queen competition again. Who will you guys vote for?” “It’ll definitely be for Snow!”

“Same here!”

Nicole did not know that she had become a hot topic on the school’s blog in just a few days. And about eighty percent of it was bashing her.

But even if she knew about it, she could not be bothered by it. The both of them walked to the canteen and sat down. Everyone was secretly staring at them. Nicole did not like such atmospheres, but she tolerated it, took her meal, and sat down.

On the other hand, Snow was enjoying the attention. She kept that usual smile on her face, thinking that she was being elegant. She sat down in front of Nicole. Then, as she secretly glanced at her phone to realize that everyone on the internet was bashing Nicole, her smile became wider.

The person he hired for the photos definitely did a great job. Now she did not have to worry about losing her title as campus queen. Looking at Nicole, who knew nothing about what was going on, Snow was secretly happy that Nicole was in so much trouble during her first few days in school. She felt a huge relief from the previous boys’ comments in class.

Before Nicole picked up her spoon, she heard Snow’s gentle yet annoying voice. “Nicole, did you get onto the bad side of Celia’s boyfriend? Yesterday, Celia mentioned she would ask his boyfriend to give you a good beating. You didn’t get into trouble, right?”

Nicole immediately understood her meaning. So, Cain was actually Celia’s boyfriend.

No wonder Snow looked for her. She must be here to gossip about her being bullied. Nicole smirked and glanced at Snow. She replied coldly, “You should ask Celia’s boyfriend instead. Isn’t she your best friend?” Celia was close to Snow and Raine, and she actually asked such questions. It was very pretentious of her. After all, it seemed like Cain was the one in trouble after what had happened last night. Nicole’s gaze made Snow feel a little nervous. It was as if Nicole saw through Snow’s intentions. But when she heard Nicole asking her to go back and ask Celia’s boyfriend about it, she felt mocked.

‘What could she do to Cain that she dare speak so daringly?’

But to maintain her image, Snow pressed down her judgment and pretended to advise Nicole,“ It’s best for you not to offend Celia again. The Rowe family is not that great to mess with. Moreover, his boyfriend is rumored to be ferocious in the Northon Institute. They’ve taught many people a lesson, and none of their victims could fight back…”

Before she could finish speaking, a group of people was chatting loudly behind her.

“Hey, didn’t you say Celia was absent today?” asked a girl.

The friend replied, “I heard her boyfriend was sent to the hospital after being beaten up in a fight. The results came out, and he fractured his right leg. I don’t know who did it…”

Another friend mocked, “Didn’t she act proudly in school only because of her boyfriend, who is a bully? Let’s see what else she can be proud of now.”

Hearing that conversation, Snow was stunned. Thinking of what Nicole said, she suddenly connected the dots and figured it out. ‘Could it be that Nicole was the one who had beaten Cain up?’
